Ethical aspects of infectious disease control [ 2016 - ]

Research Grant

Researchers: Dr Bridget Haire (Principal investigator)

Brief description Two new strategies that use anti-HIV drugs for prevention have been proven effective in recent trials. This increases prevention options but may pose challenges to ‘safe sex culture’. This fellowship will analyse ethical aspects of new HIV prevention strategies by exploring how Australians with or at high risk of HIV understand and incorporate new forms of HIV prevention into sexual negotiation. It will also examine how new prevention strategies affect laws that criminalise HIV transmission.
